music+passion=love

intense yet so vague

everytime you touch me,

everytime you walk my way

feeling every emotion 

saturate my soul

maybe for once

there's still hope

I pray it's not another failure

another let down as they 

seem to believe

you are who I have been dreaming of

when I awake and when I sleep 

how did this all happen

it's quite strange to think 

funny how life turns out sometimes

things change before we can even blink

I wanna breathe you in

feel the warmth of your skin

so close I can taste you

so tangible I can touch you

am I living or dreaming?

you've got me tantilized

in such a euphoric state of mind

my concience screams inside

I want all of you

the good the bad

no one else catches my attention

my eyes remain fixed on yours

my decision is made

I will not sway 

I've found who I was waiting for

please don't go, just stay ,

here with me,

in this unconscious place 

seeing the sunshine 

in what seems like the first time

in seven years

and here you are

ever present, never absent

your smile lights up my world

I can feel my heart beating

so intense I barely steady 

my shallow breathing

this time is different

everything, all these feelings

I pray you don't leave

I've truly never been 

this happy and overwhelmed

in my life

thoughts overtake me

and your arms emrace me

praying I wake up next to you with the dawn

painting pictures of color

a canvas of hope and love 

dream of me when you finally fall asleep

cling tight to US

and I will awaken 

to a new start

a new day a new midnight 

with you

I'm sitting outside,

lying face up to the sky,

seeing the clouds move in an array of hope,

dark night skies look as though they could swallow me up,

completely broken, here I am, searching for something new,

and there you are, again, as always, showing up,

so peaceful, so overwhelming, gentle and kind,

why do you love me so, why do you keep coming,

everyone else has left, dissappeared, their voices so distant,

all the town is empty, not a soul seems to be awake,

and in all this dissapointment, you still show me,

you are love, you are hope, you are everything when I am nothing

through the shedding tears, you wipe them solemly,

asking me to trust you, to let you help me,

I'm frigid, so timid, scared, 

and you know when I am ready, for all this time,

you have been watching, patiently waiting,

for my heart to beat for you, my voice to rise,

screaming your name, singing, to you.

I am running

faster, harder, closer,

to you, I want you,

all of you, who you are,

to breathe you in, hear your heart,

feel your breathing with mine,

hands lock in place, this is where you'll stay,

looking up, where our peace lies, 

no matter what comes our way, 

I know we have nothing but time,

after all, 

time heals, restores, and imparts,

beautiful wishes, disasters, first kisses,

you've been there through it all,

and I am not stopping this time

not for anyone, but you

you ask me what is love?

you ask why must I love you?

here is my answer.

God IS love. he loved us before we were born

before we could ever love him.

God created us TO love, to forgive, 

for we do not create life, we do not destroy it,

only God has this power.

we have the faith and promise of love and to choose to love

no matter what you have done, said, or will do,

I might be hurt, broken, angry, happy,

but despite the wrong, the bad, the mistakes,

I will love you through it all,

wanna know why?

because loving you is the best thing i could have ever done and will do.

it is what I do best, and my heart has been attracted to yours,

requiring your presence, your beat, your touch.

no one else can make me happy, like you do dear,

we all make mistakes, show out, and show our worst,

things some people never see, dear one, this is what is done,

when you get the best of me, when we know each other,

and have loved at some point in time,

so that is my answer kind sir, why it is I must love,

for I was not created for anything better but to be loved, 

and to love in return. when I do this, everything else will be taken care of,

see, you shall see, all in time

Teenage girl walking steadily down the dim lighted street

just enough light to show her the way,

a passerby nods his head, staring intently,

she lowers her head and hugs the shadows of the night,

making her way to address one seventy Aubrey court,

she moves her feet as quickly as her little legs allow,

there's not much time now, the clock ticks faster,

with every step she takes, every moment counts,

A father is waiting for his son to come home,

blue lights swirl in a constant motion,

mother cries at the small window

curtains are drawn, for the dawn is approaching,

and father races to catch mother as she falls on her knees,

screams fill the large and empty room.

the son has lost too much blood they claim.

birds flock together lost in an ongoing path in the sky

the clouds so white, blotched on a beautiful blue canvas of hope

a baby gasps for oxygen as she breathes air in her lungs

a new life has just been created, a new life has just begun.

intertwined with love, hope, and desperate emotion,

the baby, the mother and father, the girl, and the son,

they all have one simple destination.

vs.1:

living life in one direction

with such fast paced time

all in all I've won you over

in just a moment when

you looked into my eyes

chorus:

but I'll stop to watch the sunrise 

see the hope filled in your life

as we dance up and down 

this empty town. take a breath

blow a kiss for me,

say goodbye, as we drive away,

and we won't look back,

we won't look back tonight

vs.2

curve your smile, touch me,

one last time,

just a short moment,

is all I need, 

something's stirring in 

your heart,

I allow my thoughts to overwhelm me

chorus

let go, let go,

you've been holding on,

too long,

love whispers,

quiet, beautiful words,

in your ear, in your ear,

let me hear, let me see

all they want, all they need

and you will heal, slowly

he is pouring out his redemption

on the lost, on the ones,

who cry out in desperation

oh he longs, oh he longs,

to wrap you in his arms,

cling tightly to hope,

he is coming soon

Vs.1:

Autumn's coming back around

it's been two years since you've 

let me down&now I hear,

you're back in town

but I swear, I'm doing fine,

without you

colors change and dreams will fade,

I know I'm better off, without you

chorus:

so I'll seal my lips

steal one last kiss 

press my hands against yours,

hoping this long night won't fade,

and if I'm dreaming, please, don't wake me

vs.2:

In the sadness, my desperate cry of faithfulness,

I won't relent, you won't relent, till I am moved, by you

and I won't leave, no I'll remain, safe in your arms, 

you're mine, don't slip away, tonight

Bridge:

leave me, hurt me, use me, but I still remain 

the same, break my heart, steady my soul, I refuse, 

yes I refuse to give up, on you!

chorus
